Description

The remote Fedora 38 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2023-aa47d33cc8 advisory.

 - # OpenBGPD 7.8 * Improved performance by optimising the output filters * Add Autonomous System Provider Authorization (ASPA) validaton based on draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification-12 * Introduce `avs` (ASPA validation state) filter and `bgpctl` filter argument * Add ASPA support for the RTR protocol based on draft-ietf-sidrops-8210bis-10 * Improve open policy (RFC 9234) support and enable the capability automatically if a role is specified for the peer * Introduce a per neighbor `role` configuration option to specify the session role used by ASPA verification and the open policy capability.
 The `announce policy` statement was simplified at the same time. * Improve startup behaviour by introducing a small delay before opening the connection to a new peer * Support for `aspa-set` table config which can be provided by rpki-client * Make it possible to filter the RIB by invalid and leaked prefixes in `bgpctl` and `bgplgd` * Add OpenMetrics output to `bgpctl` for various BGP statistics and add `/metrics` endpoint to `bgplgd` (FEDORA-2023-aa47d33cc8)
